نَحْنُ أَوْلِيَآؤُكُمْ فِى ٱلْحَيَوٰةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا وَفِى ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةِ ۖ وَلَكُمْ فِيهَا مَا تَشْتَهِىٓ أَنفُسُكُمْ وَلَكُمْ فِيهَا مَا تَدَّعُونَ
Nahnu awliyaaa'ukum fil hayaatid dunyaa wa fil Aakhirati wa lakum feehaa maa tashtaheee anfusukum wa lakum feehaa ma tadda'oon
ہم دنیا کی زندگی میں بھی تمہارے دوست تھے اور آخرت میں بھی (تمہارے رفیق ہیں) ۔ اور وہاں جس (نعمت) کو تمہارا جی چاہے گا تم کو (ملے گی) اور جو چیز طلب کرو گے تمہارے لئے (موجود ہوگی)
We are your allies in the life of this world and in the hereafter. There you will have whatever your souls desire, and there you will have whatever you call for.
Alliance is claimed for the present life alongside the hereafter, and that first half is what commentators have argued over: whether the angels' descent comes at the moment of death, at the rising, or steadily through a person's ordinary days. The condition set for it a line earlier is istiqama, staying straight on a course after the sentence has been said.
